Resizing / Printing Photos

Get Photoshop CS2 9.0.2 (if you don't already have it) and when you save jpegs, you can pick the size/quality and just pick the maximum the website will allow. Also, they have a save for web menu that allows you to do similar things. If the website has a max size, there isn't much you can do.

Another option is using a site like photobucket or similar, and you can upload some pretty big jpegs onto that and link them to whatever forum/website you want to post them on so they show up in the thread as if you had pasted in the picture.

My problem isn't getting them down to the size a website will accept (I use Photoshop 6.0) - it is trying to balance download time and picture quality. I was just wondering how people on here manage to get their photos to both load reasonably quickly and look good.

For resizing for uploading to the web I use photoworks (discussed many times on beyond). Retains all the EXIF, and file sizes aren't too bad, quality is nearly original though, thats what I like....
